cant complain, By andrewon 2/17/2013

andrew would recommend this product to a friend

it does what it is supposed to do, and it does it very well. does it cheaply too. I dont think you can find a better price anywhere, at least not for the same quality product. BRS has all round great prices and high quality product, thanks again

You can't beat the quality and price. I have used brand named carbon with the same results. Make sure you rinse very well.

Takes a few more minutes to rinse By Josephon 1/7/2013

I've used this as well as the BRS Premium ROX 0.8.

They are both great products. However, in a canister filter I did not see sufficient difference between this and the ROX 0.8 to justify the price differential.

If cost is not an issue, then its a no-brainer: buy the ROX

very good mediaBy 241wrasseon 12/22/2012

Good media, good price buying the 1 gal container. Easy maintenance. Cleans easily: dump the old carbon & remove sponge, then simply dunk the cartridge once into water. I've found it's easiest to clean the sponge by flicking an edge of it with a finger, large particles just jump out/off the sponge - best done in a 5 gal bucket to avoid lignite getting scattered across the room!

Good stuffBy Gregon 10/22/2012

Rinse well before use, but it works really well. I see a noticeable difference in my water clarity after using it for a day or so. I've used it in both a BRS reactor and a filter bag.

Keeps tank cleanBy Robert on 9/19/2012

The lignite does keep my tank real clean, however it still has a bit of dust. I do like the value of the lignite.

Awesome ProductBy Dustyon 9/9/2012

Just switched to this carbon and the difference is amazing. It quickly washes out the dust and is easy to put into the BRS media reactor. Definitely will buy again!

great productBy scotton 7/14/2012

I just started using this carbon (large) particle on my 120g reef. Im using a small canister with a small rio pump to push the water through it very slowly as long contact time is what you want with carbon. It is keeping my tank crystal clear. It is easy to rinse and I change it out every 2 weeks.

Good balance of cost to performanceBy Leeon 6/18/2012

Lee would recommend this product to a friend

Like any material the duration is based on concentration of compounds you want to remove in contrast to the volume of media. I find this grade to be a good balance in performance to value/cost.

great carbonBy Darrellon 5/26/2012

Darrell would recommend this product to a friend

I have used BRS carbon for a long time. I normally used small particle, but decided to try the large this time. much better in my opinion. It contains a lot less dust and risnses clean a lot easier. and the larger particles dont try to work their way through the foam pad in my TLF reactor. I'm not a scientist, but I cannot tell any performance difference between large and small particle. my frag tank had a terrible odor since I have been out of carbon for a while. after placing carbon in tank the odor was gone in less than an hour! great carbon!

Crystal clear water... no jokeBy lordofthereefon 2/12/2012

lordofthereef would recommend this product to a friend

I first purchased some of this about a year and a half ago as part of a club group buy. I had been feeding formula one pellets and noticed a greenish tint to the water. Wasn;t sure if it was algae bloom or tint, but figured this was worth a shot. Within a few hours, the water was crystal clear. At first I ran this in a TLF phosban reactor, but have since moved to a simple sock in a high flow area, which seems to be doing the trick as well.

I was a faithful Kent customer for years. The quality of BRS carbon far surpasses my former brand. In using the Lignite, I have noticed it lasts longer than Kents' product and the price point is far superior. Better quality at a lower price, can't beat it....

first time usingBy jameson 6/15/2011

james would recommend this product to a friend

Well this is the first time I have ever used carbon like this. I liked it, not too dusty, just ran it under some RO water for a bit in the bag and put it in the sump under the return from the tank.

Clean water great value!By Jetthrilon 3/30/2011

Jetthril would recommend this product to a friend

I have been using this carbon for about a year now in a mesh bag placed in the back sump of my 34 gallon solana tank. It has been a tremendous help in keeping unwanted impurities out of my system.
Just be sure to wash out the new carbon before using it, this product does come with a little dust, but it doesn't take away from the great value and performance a bit!
Get it, you won't regret it!
